IMO a list is a list and can't really be confused with a paragraph...
  shopping list =
     eggs,
     bacon,
     bread,
     butter
and ul's or ol's are designed specifically for that job.

If you want more information in the list eg:
Eggs
  nice big organic brown ones
Bacon
  organic fed and humanely housed bacon only etc
then you looking at a definition list.

If the lists have a number of levels like
Services
  Web Site Development
   Graphics
   SEO and
   more
About Us
   Me
   You
   Someone else

then simply nest the lists and style them accordingly

Its easy to style the lists etc by giving each of them an id

Have you looked at the brilliantly easy ways of styling lists on the http://css.maxdesign.com.au/ site. It's a really handy resource.

Cheers

If you have two paragraphs you might want to reconsider the use of a list.

I don't agree. Consider as an example a 'list' of services - it may take more than one paragraph to adequately describe each service, but it is still a list.
